Could Psyker get Bolt Pistol as accepted through Lore?

Shoot, I’ll gladly take a Force Quarterstaff. A melee only Force staff would be really cool.

I always joke that my psyker has potato arms, but then again they can shove 2 feet of sharpened steel through a crusher’s head easily enough.

[Ryshek]

its only because the sword is so sharp

[Cerebrophage]

I’d say that’s a reflection of quality steel rather than the psyker

@GuyFawx

Singing spear or a Nemesis Force Halberd

Neither would work lorewise.

But lorewise any AM weapon is an upgraded normal human weapon. Force Glaive/Halberd can exist, but they aren’t Nemesis pattern

[BatlordCarcas]

It would have to be the weapons accessible to an Inquisitors sanctioned Psyker as per in codex rulebooks and lore it would give insight to what a psyker can wield in Darktide

[Cheturnadcatii]

Is that mean that boltpistol could be obtain in some special way? If its so rare.

[Heretical_Cactus]

It’s no more rarer than Forces, Plasma weapons and such

[dragomusic]

If Imperial Guard Sergeants can have them, they’re not super rare.

Also speaking of, there’s no way that lore fact about it only bekng manufacturered on Mars is true. There are too many human sized bolt pistols for that to be a thing.

Probably an author just wanting them to seem more special than they are.

[Nicksalot]

is it narratively feasible? absolutely. will the devs do it? probably not as veterans have access to every firearm available to non-ogryns except flamethrowers even though veteran types in 40k universe use them quite often.

if not its probably because fatshark want classes to have distinctly different feels and exclusive equipment to encourage people to run more than one character.
